摘要: A system and method is provided for performing high dynamic range digital double sampling. More particularly, a CMOS image sensor is provided that includes a pixel array with each pixel sampling both dark and bright values for digital double sampling. After the sampled signals are digitized, a mean dark value is determined and each dark value is further fed to a lookup table that generates an output value taking into account whether the pixel has been saturated. In over exposed conditions, the lookup table will generate a negative value output to eliminate image artifacts. All three values are fed to adder logic circuit that subtracts the mean dark value and the lookup table output from the bright value. This resulting output is fed to a video viewer.

摘要: A computing device and method for providing a user interface for summarizing and presenting information regarding dynamic provisioning and deployment of media processing resources, in a manner that is easy and intuitive and analogizes well to conventional physical media processing deployment. Users are not required to understand hypervisor configuration or virtual machine deployment, or switch through various layers and screens to find configuration information or controls, a process that may be particularly slow, complex, and difficult to learn, particularly for media and broadcast engineers unfamiliar with virtualization technologies. Instead, the present user interface improves efficiency of use of the computing environment for media processing, by providing deployment information in a format similar to physical processing deployment. Furthermore, because the user interface lends itself to intuitive monitoring and use, users may more accurately and efficiently deploy and undeploy processing resources, reducing overall system processing requirements, cost, and power consumption.

摘要: A method for performing differential double sampling and a CMOS image sensing device for performing the same. In one example, the CMOS image sensing device includes a pixel array include a multitude of pixels with each pixel formed by a plurality of photodiodes, a floating diffusion point and a plurality of transistors electrically coupled the plurality of photodiodes. Moreover, a column readout circuit with four storage capacitors is selectively coupled to the pixel array by switches so that the storage capacitors can store sampled pixel values. A control circuit connected to the pixel array and the column readout circuit selectively activates the transistors to output to the column readout circuit sampled dark value and bright values of one photodiode and a sampled double bright value of the one photodiode and one additional photodiode.

摘要: An image sensor is provided. In one aspect, the image sensor includes a pixel coupled to an output line. The pixel includes a photodiode configured to generate electrical charges in response to light and a supply circuit configured to supply a voltage to the photodiode to keep a voltage of the photodiode at or above a threshold level in an integration time. In another aspect, the pixel includes a supply circuit configured to selectively supply voltage to the photodiode in a first charge holding capacity and a second charge holding capacity.

摘要: An imaging system is provided that includes a pixel array having a plurality of columns with rows of pixels and with each pixel having a plurality of photodiodes and a common readout circuit that stores respective accumulation voltages from each of the plurality of photodiodes. Moreover, the system includes row driver circuitry that control the pixel array for pixel addressing and readout, such that the respective accumulation voltages of the photodiodes is read out on a readout channel coupled to a bit line column, and a hybrid multiplexer that multiplexes and routes output signals from the pixel array to a video imaging device to be displayed thereon.

摘要: An imager that includes a pixel array with a plurality of columns having rows of pixels and with each pixel having a plurality of photodiodes and a common readout circuit that stores respective accumulation voltages from each of the plurality of photodiodes. The imager further includes row driver circuitry that controls the pixel array for pixel addressing and readout, with the row driver circuitry including a plurality of shift registers, and an image sensor controller that controls the plurality of shift registers to address the rows of pixels in the pixel array. Moreover, the row driver circuitry dynamically upward and downward shifts control signals to the pixel array, such that two rows of pixels in a single column of the pixel array are addressed during a single row time.

摘要: A media stream receiver is provided for scalable physical layer flow of packetized media streams. The media stream receiver replicates the processing block in time, rather than in hardware, through the use of a single shared memory and pointer alignment calculations, which combines multiple buffering stages as the single, shared memory buffer to offer redundancy and alignment, while acting as a receiver buffer to account for packet delay variations. By doing so the media stream receiver can perform a vertical interval switch between received media streams.
